+### What's New
+
+This NPX package provides a convenient way to run Bifrost without manual binary downloads. The CLI automatically:
+
+- Detects your platform and architecture
+- Downloads the appropriate binary
+- Supports version pinning with \`--transport-version\`
+- Provides progress indicators for downloads

+
+## Method
+
+- **Single instance**: All tests run against one bifrost-http process at 1000 RPS
+- **Overhead measurement**: Mocker at 1000ms latency, calibration (Vegeta->Mocker) subtracted from test (Vegeta->Bifrost->Mocker)
+- **Stress test**: Mocker at 1000ms latency, verifies 100% success under sustained concurrency
+
+## Notes
+
+- Overhead values are in microseconds (µs), stress test values in milliseconds (ms)
+- Overhead ignores the mocker jitter, local network request queuing. In real-world the P99 overhead will be approximately 100 microseconds.
+- Tiered overhead thresholds: mean<5000µs, p50<5000µs, p90<10000µs, p95<20000µs, p99<100000µs
+- P50/P90/P95/P99 represent percentile latencies

+# Load Test Script for Bifrost
+# Runs a load test against bifrost-http with a mocker provider
+# Usage: ./load-test.sh
+#
+# This script:
+# 1. Builds bifrost-http and mocker locally
+# 2. Creates a config.json with mocker provider (OpenAI-style)
+# 3. Starts mocker with 0ms latency and bifrost-http
+# 4. Runs a calibration (Vegeta -> Mocker direct) to measure Vegeta+network baseline
+# 5. Runs the overhead test (Vegeta -> Bifrost -> Mocker) to measure total
+# 6. Subtracts calibration from test to isolate Bifrost proxy overhead
+#    (includes local network hop, JSON parsing/unparsing, plugins, and mocker jitter)
+# 7. Restarts mocker with 10s latency for a sustained concurrency stress test
+# 8. Asserts overhead < tiered thresholds (per percentile) and stress test has 100% success rate

+## Method
+
+- **Single instance**: All tests run against one bifrost-http process at ${RATE} RPS
+- **Overhead measurement**: Mocker at ${OVERHEAD_MOCKER_LATENCY_MS}ms latency, calibration (Vegeta->Mocker) subtracted from test (Vegeta->Bifrost->Mocker)
+- **Stress test**: Mocker at ${STRESS_MOCKER_LATENCY_MS}ms latency, verifies 100% success under sustained concurrency
+
+## Notes
+
+- Overhead values are in microseconds (µs), stress test values in milliseconds (ms)
+- Overhead ignores the mocker jitter, local network request queuing. In real-world the P99 overhead will be approximately 100 microseconds.
+- Tiered overhead thresholds: mean<${MAX_OVERHEAD_MEAN_US}µs, p50<${MAX_OVERHEAD_P50_US}µs, p90<${MAX_OVERHEAD_P90_US}µs, p95<${MAX_OVERHEAD_P95_US}µs, p99<${MAX_OVERHEAD_P99_US}µs
+- P50/P90/P95/P99 represent percentile latencies
